Golden Band Resources Reports Greywacke North Preliminary Drill Results

SASKATOON, Sept. 2, 2014 /CNW/ - Golden Band Resources Inc. (GBN:TSX.V) ("Golden Band" or the "Company") reports the preliminary assay results from the 2014 drill program completed on the Greywacke joint venture property (50% Golden Band Resources Inc. & 50% Masuparia Gold Corporation). During April, 2014, Masuparia Gold Corp. as operator completed 22 drill holes for a total of 2,088 metres within the Greywacke North zone.

The objectives of the program were to define the margins of the zone, infill information gaps and to explore for lateral extensions. The program will assist in completing an updated resource evaluation. The results were highlighted by drill hole GW14-123 which returned an interval of 20 metres of 8.09 g/t Au including 9 metres of 13.73 g/t Au. Table 1 presents the extent of elevated gold values encountered including significant mineralized intervals. Sample analyses were completed at the Golden Band's Jolu Mine laboratory. All samples returning assays greater than three g/t Au were subjected to metallic assays which were used in all calculated mineralized intervals. A QA/QC protocol, incorporating standards, blanks, and duplicates, was implemented for the drill program and a review of these control samples has raised no concerns as to the validity of the results.  Because the Jolu Mine laboratory is operated by a related party, and as should be part of any comprehensive QA/QC program, a representative number of samples will be sent to an independent laboratory for third party verification of results.
